I treated myself to a full body deep tissue massage on my birthday. I wanted to stay in the neighborhood (I live in Financial District) and decided to try Spring Thyme after reading a few reviews here.
I have had some of the best high end spa treatments, and I believe I have a pretty good scale for what is good and what is not when it comes to spas and massages;
This was GOOD!
Julia was amazing. I was very tight in my neck and back, and she had extensive knowledge of all the different muscles that would help with more mobility in those regions. She also remembered to be very gentle with a recent tendonitis injury, and I truly appreciated that.
Though the ambiance was very low key, and part of a great spa experience is the entrance to exit luxurious pampering, I think small enhancement to the decor could bring this up a notch, and draw in more clientelle. Maybe to use all white sheets and paint the walls white or a very light blue, add a couple ambient lamps!
I will definitely, without a doubt!, be returning to Spring Thyme for another massage.
Pros: professional, clean, excellent knowledge of massage
Cons: rooms not bright and inviting
